Multiform Tubes Engineering Ltd has built a great reputation as a leader in our field. We offer high standards with every single service, working to ensure that each customer is happy. One area where we excel is titanium tube manipulation. It requires precision, especially with complex applications. Luckily, we can cater for almost any specification.

What is tube manipulation?

Many people wonder what we mean when we say that we specialise in manipulating tubing. The process is relatively simple. What we do is take a straight section of tubing, whether it is round, square, rectangular, or oval, and adapt it. As a result the tube will change to suit the requirements.

There are a number of processes to choose from here. The most common one is bending. It can alter a section of tubing to make a curving section, a ring, or a coil. It is possible to carefully bend titanium tubes with different wall thicknesses.

In addition, some people may need services to adapt the ends of the tube. This may be to taper an end, to reduce it, swaging, or expansion. The goal here is to change the diameter, whether it is by increasing or decreasing it.

Why use titanium?

Many clients come to us for titanium tube manipulation. The metal is the best option for a wide array of industrial uses. For example, it is the material of choice for many medical companies, aerospace manufacturers, and subsea equipment.

Titanium is a unique metal in many regards. It has a fantastic combination of low density, high strength, and excellent corrosion resistance. Then, it is biocompatible and has a high melting point. Even with all of this, the metal is still highly workable. That means it is possible to turn various alloys of titanium into tubing and then adapt them.

If you are thinking of using titanium tubing for a project you need to think about which grade to choose. The properties can vary between grades. For example grade 1 is pure titanium and is the softest. Grade 2, while still being pure, has better welding properties. Grade 5 is the most common alloy but there are other options such as grades 9, 12, and 23.
